Yeah, yeah, and if the style was thoroughly American it would be even
worse to some people (those who consider using nuclear bombs on
civilians offensive, for instance).
See how derailed this over-interpretation becomes?
It's a style of graphics, not a manifesto of belief... I think most of
the discussion is overreaction.

I think the most obvious way to get the graphics changed is to
actually come up with something that everybody can see is better -
even those whose heads you seem to think are cast in stone.
It's too easy to dismiss critics as whiners if they don't present an
alternative.
